AWARE THAT many people are beginning to give up hope of ever seeing a new version of Windows, Microsoft is continuing to send its spinsters waxing lyrical about what it will contain when it arrives. The latest prediction that the Redmond sleeping giant has ‘leaked’ to CNET is that it wants to embed core orchestration and workflow into Longhorn. New workflow and orchestration technology, called the Windows Orchestration Engine will be ready for the Longhorn/Orcas time frame.
CNET quoted Bob Muglia, senior VP at Microsoft's Windows Server Division, who confirmed that work was under way. "Stay tuned," he told them showing his remarkable ability to pun in the face of tough questions from CNET hacks.
